Morgan shouldn't have apologized. Weiner's campaign is going down in flames and only a Hail Mary pass could save it. I think a lot of NYC would buy into a campaign willing to tell it how it is and spew unadulterated stream-of-consciousness outrage. They could completely turn the story around from Weiner being the guy who lied about sexting to Weiner being the guy who isn't going to sugar coat anything or play politics, he's just going to tell it like it is and do what needs to be done.

They could be like the 'rent is too damn high' guy but with actual governance bona fides.

In a moment of like frustration, I like used like inappropriate language in like what I thought was like an off the record conversation. It was like wrong and I am like very sorry, which is like what I like said tonight when I like called and like emailed Olivia to like apologize.

Weiner's goose is cooked. When you trash a former employee, you are trashing your own hiring judgment abilities and leadership. They could have refuted the low level munchkin, but all this vitriol..... yet who am I a born and raised polite ex-Midwesterner to judge whether NYC vitriol is good or bad.

"She sucked. She like wasn't good at setting up events. She was clearly there because she wanted to be seen. Like it was, like, terrible and I had to like - she would like, she would just not show up for work," said Morgan.

That is some painfully offensive language. Much more so than the curse words she used. Weiner seems to have surrounded himself with twats.

TuteTibiImperes:She has a fat chance of ever working in politics again, or for that matter anywhere she might be privy to sensitive information, after going public like that.

You don't know New York politics very well. At all.

This is where the state assembly speaker's chief lawyer got probation for sexual misconduct after plea bargaining down from a rape charge, with many strings pulled on his behalf - and not only did the speaker get the taxpayers to cover the settlement with the victim, the rapey guy bounced right into a lobbying gig and now he's a principal at one of the biggest lobbying firms in Albany.

Which means he maintained his connections at top levels of state government all along.

And the victim? She's the one who has no shot at government work, because she talked.

The bottom line in New York is that you can screw up over and over, you can be corrupt, you can even sexually assault somebody...and you'll still land on your feet, and then some if you're in the good graces of the right people. Long as you don't call out the bosses you're golden.

Ahhh. The nuts and sluts defense. I was waiting for that. It's about time these bimbo eruptions got taken care of.

/Funny observation that the object of the attack said the only reason women joined the Weiner campaign was to get closer to Huma and Hillary.//Even funnier is the outrage that Huma is being compared to Hillary for standing by her man in anticipation of a future payout. After all, Hillary was elected First Lady, Senator and appointed to Secretary of State and it had nothing to do with ignoring Bill's infidelities as Arkansas governor.

Doesn't that seem ass backwards? She would be among the bystanders or even now a victim. Tony would be the actual douche bag. For weeks he did get a pass from the media and the politicians. Tony's big mistake was to compare himself to Bill Clinton. That pissed off his protection and now he's farked.

gilgigamesh:I think that was his point. He was referring to the "intern".

Leave him alone, he needed to go off on New York state in order to vent his feelings of exclusion from New York City--not the municipality but just the feeling of its televised form-- which he has only experienced in his own head.

Why is political news in the US such a joke? Every big story (outside of tragedies and disasters) seems so trivial (and they'll even turn that stuff into a bunch of trivial bullshiat). Who cares who this politician schmuck sexted or sent dick pics to, how about his policies? He's trying to be mayor of the biggest city in the US and all anyone cares about is his sex life. It's funny but it doesn't matter.

/I guess it's a story since it's funny but I don't even watch TV news and I've heard way too much about this guy's dick.
